facebook will use all sorts of nasty tricks to identify you.
stay off the site.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52ec28ebeab8ea7f4af357baOne Stupid Comment and You're FiredFri, 31 Jan 2014 17:51:23 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52ec28ebeab8ea7f4af357ba
We had a neighborhood Facebook group. One had to be very careful about what to post, as many people full of rage just waiting to burst! (half of America lives paycheck to paycheck).
They can't take out their primal scream anywhere else but against their family & Facebook.
Anyway some residents were parking in the street and couldn't figure out why notes were being put on their windshield asking them to park in their driveway or garage.
So i posted the official HOA rules without commenting. After that a guy who was parking his insecticide truck in the street, would get drunk and start writing pretty bad crap attacking me for everything in the neighborhood, when in reality i did NOTHING.
Even posting very sanitized information is asking for trouble. Now i post nothing and am much happier ignoring the psycho neighbors.
Same thing for the police. They say they want you to call them, but then don't respond, yet the record of you calling (for nothing) still exists forever. I will only call now if someone is being murdered. We seldom look at Facebook as many others don't want to post there either. So never be a good citizen, as you will pay!
Facebook doesn't need your name to track you. They primarily use your unique IP address. Just like the NSA they are NOT to be trusted. Look there are 21 trackers on this page. Do you think I allow them to know who I am? Can they see my real IP address?

Yeah anonymous from your wireless-- but not from the NSA his Grandpa David Rockefeller controlshttp://www.businessinsider.com/c/52ebbb696da811e66822d1ebbahahalolFri, 31 Jan 2014 10:04:09 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52ebbb696da811e66822d1eb
Publicly anonymous but privately they will still know exactly who are and map all activity back to your known profile. Also, any photos you post with pictures will have all faces tagged and the relationships stored. So while publicly people don't see your name to say this is anonymous is a little misleading.http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52ebb782eab8ea33352368f0Dean WormerFri, 31 Jan 2014 09:47:30 -0500http://www.businessinsider.com/c/52ebb782eab8ea33352368f0
Why do I not find this surprising. Facebook is now in the standard dotcom trap. Trapped by expectations of unreal continued growth, endless supply of ever declining inventory value, spineless management. Their only avenue to continue to exponentially grow users and inventory in a death spiral.
Expect all manner of vile outcomes particularly at this scale.
